Quiet Platforms, a wholly owned subsidiary of American Eagle
Outfitters Inc. (NYSE: AEO), today announced it has partnered with
FourKites to provide enhanced supply chain visibility to all Quiet
Platforms retail customers. Quiet Platforms’ nationwide,
open-sharing network and technology platform enable retailers to
manage their end-to-end logistics needs more efficiently,
sustainably and cost-effectively.
The FourKites partnership will provide Quiet Platforms’ retail
customers with full lifecycle visibility for inventory, assets and
shipments moving through the connected network. Quiet Platforms
will begin tracking shipments in mid-October, providing the end
customers of the retailers in its network with unprecedented
visibility into the status and movement of their purchases.
Beginning in December, Quiet Platforms will expand access directly
to retailers, enabling them to:
- Track the movement of inventory from receipt to delivery
in near real time.
- Resolve logistics exceptions that result in inventory or
last-mile delivery delays.
- Gain transportation insights from the movement of goods
across lanes, transportation providers and facilities that can be
used to inform future decisions.
- Improve the customer experience by giving customers
accurate, real-time information about the status of their
orders.
- Reduce cargo loss by surfacing comprehensive, real-time
views of the flow of inventory through Quiet Platforms’ nationwide
network.
“In partnering with providers like FourKites, Quiet Platforms is
giving retailers in our network the ability to access complete,
real-time supply chain visibility through end-to-end solutions,”
said Charles Griffith, CTO of Quiet Platforms. “Traditionally, it
has been difficult to get an accurate view of an entire network,
let alone that view in real time—which is why we are excited to
offer these advanced technology solutions to our customers.”
“We are honored that Quiet Platforms chose to partner with
FourKites on this revolutionary approach to optimizing the global
end-to-end retail supply chain,” said Mathew Elenjickal, Founder
and CEO of FourKites. “Together, we are working to help the world’s
leading retailers grow their market share through better customer
experiences and improved relationships with their supply chain
partners.”
